New Life Friday Night is a congregation of New Life Church. We meet every Friday at 6:30 p.m. to sing praise to God, to pay close attention to the Scriptures, to gather around the Table, and to listen to and pray for one another.

Our Friday night gathering has a distinct family feel, a wonderful children's ministry available for newborns-5th graders, and is the touchstone of our community’s life. Beyond our gathering, we work hard to cultivate opportunities to share life together and to serve the needs of the world around us.

Since 2016, New Life Friday Night has partnered with our Hispanic congregation, Iglesia Nueva Vida, to serve some of the poorest of the poor in our community. Through food drives, 2nd Saturday events, Thanksgiving and Christmas outreaches and more, we seek to join with God in his work in our city.

Our Teaching Team

New Life Friday Night's teaching team is comprised of Lead Pastor Daniel Grothe, and Associate Pastor Andrew Arndt. Together, they share the responsibility of preaching and teaching in our weekly services. This team approach allows New Life to hear from multiple voices, and allows sustainable rhythms for our Friday Night Teaching Team.

New Life Sneak Peak

What You Can Expect When You Visit

When you arrive at New Life, you can expect to be greeted warmly. Worship will include well-known and heartfelt songs. The teaching will be biblically-based and infused with life application. There are also plenty of opportunities to get to know the people around you and get connected. At most services we also partake of Communion as the high point of the service.

New Life Worship is a team of musicians and songwriters whose single goal is to help people encounter Jesus. At every service you will see that New Life is a strong local church with deep roots in worship. Some songs born out of our times of worship include "I Am Free," "Overcome," "Great I Am," "Amazed," "My Savior Lives," "Strong God," and "Your Name". These worship anthems have traveled far beyond our local community and are now sung around the globe.

Groups are one of the best ways to get connected at New Life. Find support, study the Bible, or simply share a meal with one another. Discover the joy of doing life together by finding a Group that best fits you. To find more about our New Life Groups click here.

At New Life Church we usually do sermon series that are either topical or based on specific books of the Bible. Occasionally we do a stand alone sermon and we also have guest-speakers from all over the world. Whatever the case, you can expect a solid biblical perspective infused with everyday, practical life application.

At the heart of our corporate worship is the Lord's Table, where we receive communion nearly every service. Each week the message from Pastor Brady and the New Life pastors lead us toward the Table and guide us to experience Jesus there together. For us the Lord's Table is the high point of the service as we remember what Christ has done for us, as we look for the Great Feast one day, and as we receive His grace abounding to us in fresh ways.

During our weekend services you will see New Life Kids worshiping, praying, building friendships, and having fun. This is a snapshot of the ministry that happens in the children’s classrooms around New Life. Our mission is to partner with the Holy Spirit and families to help children discover, experience, and follow Jesus. Learn more about New Life Kids
